Lovely afternoon at the winery - Beautiful setting for a wine tasting with a small tour of the winery. Interesting to learn and try some Rakija straight from the vat (70%). Friendly staff and a nice cheese and meat platter to accompany the wine. The nearby chapel is worth a look too.

Fantastic experience - We had a fantastic experience at the vineyard. The atmosphere, the surroundings and not least the fantastic cute people there that gave us the best experience for a long time. You get to taste very different things for little money. We give the place our warmest recommendations and hope to come back.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE - Outstanding hospitality and wine experience worth every penny. We arranged the tour direct and pick up from the winery which was cheaper than paying a third party agent. Staff were hospitable and knowledgeable food and wine was great. We would highly recommended!

Absolutely fantastic. - Absolutely amazing experience. Everything from start to finish was easy and smooth, from pick up outside our hotel right through to drop off back there. The wine was incredible, the food tasty and each of the staff went above and beyond with their service. Every single member of staff were polite and courteous and explained the story behind each drink with detailed information. The place itself was magical. If you are thinking of booking this excursion, then do so as you will enjoy every moment.

Amazing experience - My friend and I decided to do a wine tasting here very last minute, because we already got the chance to taste some of the wines and we loved it. This was not a problem and they were very welcomming. The amazing experience started when we were picked up at our accommodation, the driver told us a lot about all the towns we crossed and about the winery. The people working there were absolutly amazing and very kind, you can feel that they love what they do. We even got to see where the wine was made and meet the owner. The place is perfect, the people were amazing, the wine was great. We loved everything about it. 100% would recommend to go here.

Wonderfull time, highly recommended - Although natural surrounding and history contribute significantly to the overall impression, it is the kindness and generosity of the owner, host and the crew that make this trip a wonderful heartwarming experience. We were welcomed with open arms and instantly felt at home.
We tasted a range of balanced and complex wines as well as some excellent barrique „rakija“.
My preference lies clearly with the traditional full bodied deep ruby-coloured earthy wines that Macedonia is well known for. However, lovers of light fruit forward wines with delicate sweetness will also find a match to their taste. One has to admire and applaud Stephan for daring into different directions and acceding expectations on so many levels.
Professional presentation of our charming sommelier in excellent English was detailed and interesting with background information on local and Macedonian wine making tradition.
We had good conversations in excellent company and had and bought far too much wine. :) We will recommend this to our friends and will gladly revisit if the occasion presents itself.

Monastery Winery - This is a very laid back pleasant experience. The winery is in the mountains in a very beautiful setting. We had a tour of their wines production facility and then had a lovely time enjoying the charcuterie platter in learning about their various varieties of wine. We would recommend this tour to anyone wanting a relaxing time to enjoy some excellent wine with friends.

Didn’t show up - Sent a request through the website to book hiking and wine tasting.
After 24 hours heard nothing so got hotel reception to ring was told couldn’t do the hike as didn’t have permission for forest. We arranged the wine tasting for today to be picked up between 1.50 and 2.10pm.
Sat just outside reception from 1.45 to 2.45.
They didn’t turn up …..disappointing
